Pictured: The lion with the black mane (background) with the rest of the pride. This lion looks like he is fresh out the hairdressers after having his ginger mane dyed black - but it is actually all natural colouring. Shocked photographer Fabrice Dudenhofer could not believe his eyes when he saw the male Kalahari lion walking towards him. The 35-year-old was visiting the Nambiti Game Reserve in Kwazulu Natal, South Africa, when he spotted the rare lion, nicknamed Blackie. Fabrice, of Marseille, France, got so close to the lion while taking its picture that he could hear its breathing. SEE OUR COPY FOR DETAILS. Please byline: Fabrice Dudenhofer/Solent News ?
